Patricia Dominguez
Assistant Director
My name is Patricia Dominguez, this school year 2022-2023, I commenced my 26th year in the education field. During these years, I have had the opportunity to make a difference in each child that I have encountered. I started my journey soon after graduating from Martin High School in 1995, and I continue to endure the passion to teach. My early years as an educator began at a learning center from 1996-2009. After 13 years at a learning center, I took on a new journey at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic School where I had the opportunity of various teaching positions. From 2010-2012 I worked with 6th graders teaching social studies and science. In 2013- May 2019, I became a Pre k 4 teacher. August of 2019, I began my journey at KC2 as a Pre k teacher. During my first school year at KC2 I took on a new opportunity as I began my certification as a TSR Participant. For the next three school years I worked very closely with administration and mentors through the Children Learning Institute until I completed the full certification. During this time, I obtained knowledge and teaching techniques that allowed me to become a better educator for our little ones. This school year 2022-2023, I was promoted to Assistant Director, where I will work very closely with administration in focusing and creating great opportunities for our students. In addition, as I strive to expand my professional development and after being awarded a T.E.A.C.H. Scholarship, I embarked on the continuation of college where I will be working very hard to complete my associates and someday reach my Bachelors.

Melissa Sanchez
Teacher Assistant
Hello, My name is Melissa Sanchez, I discovered I loved working with children as a career during my freshman high school year. I always wanted to be more than a teacher or caregiver to children as well as children in need- Therefore, I chose the path I am in today, communication disorders, I am in the practice to teach kids other ways to communicate through life. I enjoy seeing children grow their education and grow into their own person.

I think this is the reason why I love working with kids. I am currently working on my associates at Laredo community college. I Love working with kids because not only do they learn from us teachers, but we as adults get to learn and understand them a little bit more. Your children are in good hands due to all the love and affection we as caregivers will be providing them with.
